A tense home-invasion slasher that weaponizes a blind protagonist's vulnerability, building paranoia and dread through isolation and the threat of unseen danger.

Sloan Carter is a young girl who has recently been blinded. Her father leaves for the weekend and her two best friends, returning home from University, keep her company. A protege of her father's, passing through town, also spends the night. The peaceful weekend is interrupted by a shadowy threat and the safe country getaway turns into a fight for survival.
